"The values of the "money world," Aird adds, "are increasingly at odds with the values necessary for raising human children, what I call the values of the 'motherworld,' values such as sacrifice and self-giving, discipline and moderation, humility and forbearance, commitment and dedication.""

--------------The Alliance for Childhood

"In the money world, our children are means to ends. They are subjects of research. They are workers, consumers, and producers. They are means to maximizing sales. They are means to advancing technological and economic progress."
